Google, KAESO, and the National Transmission Company of South Africa (NTCSA) are set to drive discussions on critical infrastructure and operational technology at African Energy Week (AEW) 2026, scheduled for October 12-16 in Cape Town. The event will bring together technology and energy service providers and utilities to examine how infrastructure-led and technology-driven solutions can improve the reliability of energy assets for socioeconomic development. Technology is redefining Africa's power sector, with Google accelerating this transformation by building out the continent's digital infrastructure, AI tools, and tech ecosystem.
